The Hausburg Cabinet 1840-57The remarkable ebony and miniature representation of Rheims Cathedral took its maker Friedrich Ludwig Hausburg (1817-1886) 17 years to make between 1840 and 1857. Measuring 18 x 15in (45 x 38cm), its full glory is only revealed upon the opening of doors to reveal panels and drawer facias elaborately inlaid with brass, tulipwood, abalone and mother of pearl, with British landmarks.
